Let’s take a break from workspace design & talk a little bit on Fengshui, where most business owners care a lot. The office is where we generate wealth. Therefore, the Fengshui layout will directly affect the fortunes of the company and its employees. Before you engage any interior designers, be sure that you find a trustworthy Fengshui master to plan your auspicious layout.

1 – The spaciousness of the office entrance often shows if the company would prosper. If there are too many large objects piling up the doorway, it will be hard to walk through. Over time, this creates discomfort and may even affect the work ambience. And of course, too much clutter spoils the aesthetics and obstructs the vision. One should ensure it is clear & bright where it welcomes the Qi “气” or what westerners known as “flow” to surround the work environment, which deem auspicious & harmony for businesses.

2 – The office decoration should not appear too luxurious. Generally milky white and ivory are the go-to colours for office interior. The orientation of the workstation should base on the individual's auspicious position, primarily following the highest leader of the organization. For example, people with Yang Fire Master Element can consider facing southwest, as it is the auspicious direction for them. This helps to attract positive energy and advance your career path.

3 – Desk facing & location. We should arrange the desk facing according to our BaZi “八字“ , for example if ones auspicious facing is west, her table should be located east while sit facing the west.

4 – The office room size should be in adequate size. If the area is too big, it appears empty and does not gather Qi. On the other hand, if the space is too small, it may be inconvenient to move around, and inhibits business development.  If the desk leans against the window, it will disrupt the flow of chi, affecting the employer’s thought process, decision making, revenue etc.

5 – The height of the window is critical in the office room’s Fengshui layout. If the back window of the office room is small and high with two meters above the ground, the office and wealth corner will become dim. This is because such structure resembles cells, which also have high windows.

6 – In office Fengshui, it is best to keep the layout simple and not decorate the space with artificial flowers, trees and rockery as they lack vitality, affecting the flourishes on the business. Generally, the reception area is on the right side of the entrance. Based on human habits and Fengshui culture, the left side of the door is the wealth corner. We can decorate this area with large-leaved plants or Fengshui ornaments. The wealth corner should not be turned into a room. Instead, we can set up a display area to highlight the corporate culture and products. Be mindful that it should not take over the wealth corner. By displaying these items on the wall, it leaves an impression on visitors about the product, corporate culture and business philosophy. Which brings better business opportunities.  

Once again, Fengshui settings highly depending on individual’s BaZi and shall consult the masters prior planning ahead.
